I'm Incredibly Happy, I'm Incredibly Lucky.

Heroes And Star Trek Were 2006 And 2007, And I Was Just About To Turn 30, And Everything Changed. I Found Myself On This Amazing Journey, Which Continues, But It's Now At A Natural Transition Point. I'm Reevaluating And Reexamining How And Where I Go From Here.

What Scares Me? Oh, Now That's A Big Question. I Don't Know What Scares Me - Cockroaches, Nuclear Apocalypse. Fear Is An Interesting Thing. It Has A Place In All Of Our Lives. I Try To Be As Fearless As Possible. I Don't Always Succeed, But I Like To Think I Try.

I Would Say Auditioning Was My Real Training Ground. The Technical Aspects - Like Hitting Marks And Pacing Yourself And Preparing And Dealing With The Downtime - The First Recurring Role I Had On 24 Was Probably The Way I Learned That Stuff.

I Love Playing Characters That Go To Extreme Places, And I Love To Explore Different Kinds Of Psychological Landscapes, So It Is Ultimately A Kind Of Fun, But It's Also Complicated And Colored By The Depth Of The Nastiness Of It, At Certain Times, As Well.

I Feel Like That [the Role In Star Trek] Is A Prime Example Of, Yeah, I Got That Role And It Was Awesome, Because It Changed A Lot For Me Professionally, But Then Creatively, It Became A Whole Other Thing, With J.j. [abrams] And Chris [pine] And The People I Got To Know. Now I Just Feel Like It's Our Jobs To Be Open And To Keep Moving Stuff Forward. I Don't Know What That Means. This Is The First Time In A Long Time That I Have No Idea What's Happening Next. As Scary As That Is, And As Anxiety-provoking As That Can Still Be, It's Also Really Exciting.
